Buddies Hakkalugi Disk brake bike set up as a single speed with mountain bars so he can run R1 hydraulic disk brakes. He has been racing this bike for a few months and loves this setup. He has quite a few bikes in his CX stable but said this is his goto bike for light and fast. Usually places first or second in SS class in SoCal so I would say it is working well for him. Right at 15 lbs. in this setup.

Back in the late 80s there was a craze among mountain bikers of running handlebars backwards and upside down to force a "more natural" elbows out position. I believe Peregrine was among the manufacturers that promoted this idea. I tried it... didn;t like it. But to each his own...
